Madame Web is a genuine abomination to filmmaking. Like a ruined spider’s web, the entire movie is ridden with plot holes and the tarnished carcasses of all the cast’s careers. Half of the movie sounds like a table read, with uncharacteristic monotony in voice and action – I’ve seen animals give better performances. Most of the actors lack actual character, voice inflection, and human emotion, while the villain is the most single note character whose voice sounds like it’s been dubbed in English. It’s truly impressive that studio executives decided to greenlight a project THIS appalling. Cheesy dialogue, random plot conveniences, terribly laughable special effects, and a budget that appears to have consisted of two nickels. Genuinely cringey, silly, horrendous, dumb (pick your adjective) in every degree.
